And after watching them both you come away much more balanced, realizing that they are both completely full of shit, and that there is a lot of fucked up shit all the way around, and anyone with eyes can spot most of it on their own.
Actually, FahrenHYPE911 was mostly the smart liberals response to the film. Liberals who seem to make sense!

Here is a little something for Michael Moore:

Should a 400 lb man advise us on the evils of over-consumption?
Should the resident of a million-dollar apartment claim to be a poster boy of the working class?
Should a person who thought that Enron was a great investment, that Ralph Nader, Wesley Clark and John Kerry would win, and that North Korea's Kim Jong was changing for the better, advise us on ANYTHING?
Well said Nebraskaboy, Well said!

Thanks for warning him though. Hope the healing is coming along
You've actually taught me quite a bit, and opened my eyes to quite a bit. You're a damn fine debater.
Thanks mate and back at ya. Still recovering from the tadpole inflicted concussion.
You have given me a new respect (and hope) for men in uniform.
Well thank you. I am doing my best to show that some of us can think for ourselves, and joined for the right reasons.

I agree. A good come back from the 'trust me' remark.

What bullshit have you read now?
Trust me, he was never born in Flint, like he wanted you to believe. He was actually born in Davidson, Michigan. Davidson is a wealthy town in Michigan. He just claimed to be from Flint to seem that he grew up poor. He didnt even move to Flint till he dropped out of college his freshman year, where he got a job on the Flint Voice.




Dude. Shut up.
What did you prove? He was not born in Flint, what were you even trying to prove?
Godbless, Tadpole.

He proved that there is little difference between flint and davidson, ecept more people have heard of flint, which is probably why Michael Moore identifies with it. It's like people who live in the suburbs around here, if you ask them where they are from they usually say Philadelphia, because who has ever heard of Horsham?

Yeah, I actually knew they were real close... I was just saying that he couldn't even be honest about where he was born. He only said he was born in Flint because it is very poor and Davidson is a wealthy town.
Godbless, Tadpole.

Oh I am sure he played that up a lot. Of that I have no doubt. He's a big fat peice of shit who wants people to believe he actually cares about america, but all he cares about is himself.

One thing I thought was cool was that he encouraged the piracy of his movie. Now I know that he only did that to get the word out and spread his own agenda, but I still thought it was cool and forward thinking.

You should. It's a hoot. I laughed most of the way through it.

You only found it entertaining because you wanted to believe his bullshit, not actual facts.
